What is the correct version in writing this sentence? The man is standing behind the woman and pulls on her short, blonde hair tilting her face up.

4 answers

The problem is with the placement of "tilting her face up." In the current sentence, it reads as if the blonde hair were tilting her face up -- which is clearly impossible!

Who was doing the tilting? Put that phrase as close as possible to that noun.
